About 125a
125a is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Gillingham (ME7 1DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 51 m² this is the 4th smallest of 67 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 28–99 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump.
Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
